I’m 68, 5’2 and 115 lbs. Taking 600 ml of Gabapentine 3 x a day. And yet have the tightness in calves and neuropathy pain. Sleep test for third time shows RLS. All I can hope for is temporary relief after yoga stretches, positions which are held with deep slow breaths. And a muscle relaxant in the evening then Ambian to sleep. But I’m always looking for better alternatives…

Hi, I find that if I wait an hour after taking my evening dose of gabapentin, all I need is one extra strength Tylenol to help me sleep. Two Tylenol is like a sleeping pill and I can actually sleep through the usual bathroom trip during the night.

Have you tried magnesium glycinate? This particular form of magnesium at bedtime has helped me with muscle tightness and also promotes calmness at bedtime.

Do you drink coffee. And enough water Are you dehydrayed
